Construction Management 2

Course content
The focus is on construction management, from design through to construction. It is a common international phenomenon that construction management practices are changing as the number of skilled construction workers declines and BIM becomes more widespread. In response to these issues, improvements in construction management are rapidly being made, with the US and European countries leading the way. In this lecture, we will study and discuss the latest developments in this field. In order to become an engineer who will be responsible for construction projects in the future, when globalization is expected to accelerate, it is necessary to understand international trends in construction management, and this course is positioned as an internship-related course.
Purpose of class
The change in the process towards the involvement of general contractors and subcontractors in the design process is having such an impact that it is changing the traditional construction project structure, contracts, information environment, cost management, quality responsibility, risk allocation and other conventions in construction projects. The aim of this lecture is to learn about these trends through case studies from Japan and overseas, to understand the benefits and challenges of these changes, and to acquire the knowledge necessary for future construction management.
Goals and objectives
  1. Understand international trends in the construction industry and their context.
  2. Understand international examples of solutions to issues in the building industry.
  3. Understand the theory of Building Information Modelling.
  4. Understand the diversification and background to the involvement of general contractors in design.
  5. Understand the diversification and background to the involvement of subcontractors in design.
